Men'Thar-Glory to the Dragonknights

First Post
Hello ENWorld, I have decided to make a second game in my homemade Campaign setting of Men'Thar. The entire(and growing) CS can be found at this Link, Second Post:

To be safe, I'm going to include this new section here, as it is the most important for this campaign.

The Golden Dragonrealm of Amun

The Golden Dragomrealm of Amun is known by scholars and people alike as a kingdom that was once greatness itself. It was the pinnacle of government, the shining light in the darkness. Situated on the continent of Uaoi, they were the ultimate warriors, the fairest diplomats, the greatest scholars. But much of their history is unknown, save a few tomes in Ultimia, and the Fallen Dragons Sacred Library.

Millions of years ago, the Gods, in their infinite splendor, met together in the sacred palace of Phoenixia, home of Amunia. She was the leader of the Gods, an amazingly kind Golden Dragon. She spoke to her fellow gods that she believed a new world should be created, and that all the gods could lead together on this new world. In the past, gods can supreme control over a given planet, but Men’thar was to be the first world with more than one worshipped god. Justico, the god of Justice, would be given worship over the Humans, Dwarves, and Elves. Atlantia would be given control over the Sea-Elves, when their forseen Exodus occurred. Necromia, as cruel and dark as he was, would be given the duty of ruling the dark hearts of Men’thar. But the Holy Mother wanted only one people for herself, not to rule over them like peasants, but to care for them like children. She would help to forge the greatest people of all time, the people of Amun.

Millions of years later, civilization arose, and kingdoms began to form. Cabarka, Mier, Templarus, all great kingdoms. It was then, 5,301 years before the Golden Prophecy took shape that Amunia decided to help forge her kingdom. She turned into the form of a gorgeous female and made love to a fierce warrior known as Catalan Pox, the man to become Amun’s first leader. She bore his child, and a line of Dragon-blooded royals ensued. She helped him organize a group of good people, honest and virtuous, and led them to an area of Uaoi. It was here that Catalan created the first markings of the Golden Dragonrealm. Over the next 4,000 years, the kingdom would grow in size and power, making way for marvelous cities, libraries, temples, and warriors. The capital, St. Pox, was a true creation of the gods. A combined effort between Justico’s smith Haelfor and Amunia, a huge floating city in the clouds was created. Amunia also bestowed The Patriarch with 23 of her breed, fine Golden Dragons to be bred in St. Pox, and used as steeds for the 20 Elite Dragonknights of Amun, 2 Extra, and 1 as the Royal Steed of the Patriarch.

The Dragonknights of Amun

The Dragonknights were the kingdom, and perhaps the world’s, most elite warriors. Clad in heavy draconic armor, armed with mystical lances, and atop swift Dragons, the Dragonknights protected Amun and destroyed any enemies of Uaoi. The process for becoming a Dragonknight was an extremely arduous task, one taking many years to accomplish.

At around 8, families would generally send their young sons to the Young Mens Military Training Program in Kath’Ranor, a city southwest of St. Pox. For the next 10 years, the boys trained from night to day, learning combat, tactics, ethics, history, and virtue. At the age of 18, the men graduating from the program took on the title of Dragonsquire, where they served as a Combat squire to a Dragonknight for the next 10-12years. Finally, at around 30 or 32, if the Dragonknight deemed the Squire worthy, he would resign from his duty(voluntarily of course) and hand the reigns over to the Dragonsquire. After an induction ceremony by The Patriarch himself, the Squire became a fully fledged Dragonknight of Amun.



I would like to make this campaign a 3 player game, with the players taking on the role of Dragonknights of Amun. These are the character creation rules:

8th Level
30 Point Buy
Human
Must Have at least 1st Level Dragonrider Class(Draconomicon)

Characters will also need to have a background true to the Campaign Setting. Any interested players please post here with interest. Thanks.

One question thus far: What's Amunia's favoured weapon?

and

One thing I noticed while putting my char together (paladin/dragonrider) was that the prereqs for dragonrider, combined with the game's level, means only characters with good base attacks can qualify. Is that what you had intended? Not that it affects my char, just wondering, cos it'll prevent people taking clerics or anything in that vein.

Hmm, you make a good point. I suppose we could do 8th Level Start, how's that sound?

Also, the favored weapon is the Polearm, LIke a Lance.

Ok since Festy and Ferrix were first, what characters do you want to play? I'll fit my character to fit the party's needs.Sounds like an awesome setting. :)
